REVIEWER: | Scott Van Aken |
NOTES: | Cast Metal |
This Scale Aircraft Conversions set is for the Trumpeter 1/32 E.E. Lighting, which has been around afor a bit. This set has been upgraded by shortening the main landing gear legs. Apparently the kit ones are too long. The set is quite beefy and perfect for a rather wobbly kit like the Lightning. The set consists of the two main landing gear, with the retraction struts protected in a metal sprue. There are also a pair of separate oleo scissors. The nose gear leg is nicely cast and comes with a bit I do not recognize, but may be for the rear nose gear door.This set is nicely molded and is a direct replacement for the kit parts.
You can order these direct athttp://www.scaleaircraftconversions.com if your local hobby shop or favorite on-line retailer does not stock them.
